Combinatorial Models for Some Generalized McMullen Maps in the Case of Two Bounded Critical Orbits Kelsey Brouwer PhD Student University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee The family of generalized McMullen maps R(z)= z^n + b + a/z^n has two independent critical …
Blowup of the Nonlinear Klein-Gordon Equation in FLRW Spacetimes Gregory Mwamba Graduate Student University of California - Merced The nonlinear Klein-Gordon equations are a class of important evolution equations that describe the movement of spinless relativistic particles, which can lend …
A q-analog of Kostant's Weight Multiplicity Formula and a Product of Fibonacci Numbers Kim Harry PhD Graduate Student University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Using Kostant’s weight multiplicity formula, we describe and enumerate the terms contributing a nonzero value to the multiplicity of …
Finite State Machines and Bounded Permutations Eric Redmon Graduate Student Marquette University We define a k-bounded permutation Ï€ of length n to be a permutation such that for each pair of adjacent entries $\pi$ and $\pi(i + 1)$ for $i …
Graduate Student Colloquium: Soft Open This is our first Math Graduate Student Colloquium. We will be hanging out, eating snacks, and getting back into the swing of semester life. Please, join us and get a feel of what to expect …
Finite Elements for Mathematicians Liam Jemison PhD Graduate Student University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee We will discuss the finite element method, a powerful approach for numerically solving differential equations. We will introduce the weak formulation of a differential equation from the functional …
Fractal Geometry and Non-Integer Dimensions Matt McClinton PhD Graduate Student University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Popularized in the 1980s, fractals have become something of a household name. These fractal sets often demonstrate peculiar topological properties. One such property is the notion of …
Stirling Permutations to Increasing Plane Trees and Back Ariel Minakawa and Gavin Sayrs Undergraduate Students University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee A Stirling permutation is a permutation on the multiset {1,1, 2, 2, 3, 3, ... ,n, n} such that any numbers appearing …
Generalized Linear Model Approach to the Prediction of the Outcome of Mixed Martial Arts Fights Jackson Thurmond Graduate Student University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Mixed martial arts is a complex combat sport that encompasses striking, grappling and submissions. In a sport where …
The RSA Algorithm: Demonstration and Proofs Noah Mitchell, Levi Montee, and Harrison Piehowski Graduate Students University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee In this talk, we will explore the RSA algorithm, one of the most widely used cryptographic systems. Starting with a brief history …
